President Kwa艣niewski formally apologised for the killings in Jedwabne which had been blamed on the Nazis. Hundreds, possibly as many as 1600 Jews, were murdered, not by the Germans, but by their own neighbours. Also on the programme: a Ugandan bishop tells a UN conference of the suffering that small arms have caused in his part of the world; in Srebrenica thousands of Bosnian Muslims commemorate Europe's worst atrocity since World War II.
